HTX  Creation Challenge — Post and Win 1,500U 💥

US investment bank JPMorgan stated that for Ethereum and the altcoin market to reverse their long-standing weak performance against Bitcoin, strong growth in network usage, decentralized finance (DeFi) adoption, and real-world use cases is needed.

The bank’s report, published last week, stated that cryptocurrency markets have been under pressure for the past six months due to rising interest rates, persistent inflationary pressures, and weak risk appetite. During this period, both Bitcoin and Ethereum experienced sharp pullbacks, while massive outflows from spot ETFs and reduced leverage in the market further increased selling pressure.

JPMorgan analysts said that despite a recovery in the crypto market following the Iran conflict, Ethereum and other altcoins continue to lag behind Bitcoin. The team of analysts, led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, stated that one of the clearest indicators of this divergence is ETF flows. According to the report, spot Bitcoin ETFs have recovered approximately two-thirds of their previous outflows, while spot $ETH ETFs have only recovered about one-third.

The report also noted that momentum investors, such as CTAs and crypto-focused quantitative funds, are still slightly underpositioned in both Bitcoin and Ethereum. This indicates that speculative investors have not yet formed strong long positions.

On the other hand, JPMorgan noted that cryptocurrency prices have stabilized somewhat following the start of the conflict with Iran. Investors are reportedly turning to cryptocurrencies due to the 24/7 availability of markets and signs of renewed institutional demand. According to the bank, while Bitcoin and $ETH have occasionally outperformed stocks and other risky assets, market volatility remains high.

Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

Ethereum’s sideways price action has continued, but demand for the leading altcoin on the institutional level has not yet cooled down. During this persistent price action, institutions across the sector have been quietly increasing their exposure to ETH, buying more of the altcoin.

Corporate Demand Pushes Ethereum Reserves Higher
A recent report has revealed an underlying persistent demand for Ethereum even as its price continues to face downside pressure. In the face of volatility, institutional investors have continued acquiring ETH as the amount of ETH held in corporate reserves climbs sharply to fresh levels.

According to Crypto Patel, a researcher and on-chain analyst, the number of ETH collectively held in corporate reserves has recently reached 7.33 million ETH, valued at a whopping $16 billion. This figure marks its highest level yet.

The milestone shows that businesses across the crypto and financial sectors are becoming more open to treating Ethereum as a strategic part of long-term treasury and digital asset plans rather than just as a speculative asset. When institutions are buying, it often points to rising confidence in Ethereum and the network’s expanding role across the blockchain sector.

With roughly 6% of ETH’s total supply now sitting on corporate balance sheets, Crypto Patel has labeled this a rapidly growing institutional accumulation. Overall, the increase in corporate ETH reserves underscores ETH’s role as one of the leading assets for long-term investments in the broader and ever-dynamic cryptocurrency sector.

Bitcoin difficulty hit 136.61T on May 15 as miner revenue fell 9.44%.

Hashrateindex.com data shows PH/s value slid from $38.97 to $35.29 in 4 days.

Bitcoin fees made up just 0.59% of rewards, keeping focus on BTC price trends.

Although the previous week offered miners a more favorable stretch, conditions have tightened considerably over the last four days. Bitcoin’s network difficulty climbed on May 15 at block height 949536, marking the first upward adjustment in more than a month, or two full epochs. The 3.12% increase lifted the difficulty rating from 132.47 trillion to the current 136.61 trillion.

It also marked the fourth difficulty increase of 2026 and the third largest adjustment recorded so far this year. Bitcoin’s mining difficulty reaching 136.61 trillion means the network is now approximately 136.61 trillion times more difficult to mine a block than it was when Satoshi Nakamoto first launched Bitcoin in 2009. Yet the difficulty adjustment is far from the only pressure weighing on bitcoin mining participants.
The strain has intensified over the last four days following the latest difficulty epoch increase, as revenue tied to hashprice continues to thin. In simple terms, hashprice represents the estimated daily value of 1 PH/s of hashing power. Data recorded by hashrateindex.com shows hashprice stood at $38.97 on May 14. Since then, as mining difficulty climbed, bitcoin miners are now earning 9.44% less, with a single petahash currently valued at roughly $35.29 per day.

This comes as bitcoin retreated from an intraday high above $82,000 on May 14 and now changes hands at $76,680 per coin as of 3 p.m. ET on Monday afternoon, May 18. Current statistics point to a potential difficulty decline at the next epoch adjustment expected on or around May 29, though with 1,576 blocks left to mine at press time, those p
